Chapter 204: Longing for Hometown

Although Xiao Lingdang was hired, she would not start work right away, so the three of them agreed to go shopping together in the afternoon.

But just after lunch, Tang Qinghua received a call from his father. The house in his hometown needed some steel bars and asked him to use his car to pull some steel bars back.

"Using an Audi to pull steel bars? You guys are so extravagant!"

Little Bell shook her head helplessly.

"A short piece of steel rod can be placed in the trunk. But I may not be able to go shopping in the afternoon."

Tang Qinghua said slightly apologetically.

"It's okay, let's go to your hometown and have a look."

Wu Jing smiled understandingly.

In fact, she was not very interested in shopping. Instead, she was more interested in Tang Qinghua's hometown and wanted to see what it was like.

……

At the beginning of September, autumn is coming!

The temperature in Jiangcheng is as high as 35 degrees. Fortunately, Audi's air conditioning system is good, otherwise Tang Qinghua really doesn't want to go out.

Liu Xianhe was considerate of the workers and only worked morning and evening shifts on the construction site: work started at 07 a.m. and ended at 30 a.m.; work started at [-] p.m. and ended at [-]:[-]... At noon, he took a rest under the yellow horn tree.

"The steel bars are here!"

Tang Qinghua drove the car in front of the house.

The workers had just started working, and the shade of the trees was empty. Only Liu Ping and her second aunt were there - her future daughter-in-law came in the past two days, and Liu Shurong had to cook in the city, so Liu Ping and her second aunt were cooking for the workers.

"Tsinghua, why are you here?"

Liu Ping asked in surprise when she saw her.

Under the shade of the yellow horn tree, two wooden tables were placed. On the table were cattail fans and tea made with mint. The two of them were chatting under the tree.

"We'll send the steel bars back."

Tang Qinghua greeted his second aunt: "Second aunt——"

"It's so hot! Oh, this is-"

When the second aunt saw Wu Jing, her eyes suddenly lit up, and she roughly guessed who she was.

"This is my girlfriend Wu Jing... Xiaojing, this is my second aunt, sister Xiaoling's mother."

Tang Qinghua introduced immediately.

"Hello, aunt——"

Wu Jing immediately greeted her sweetly.

"Well...she looks so beautiful!"

The second aunt was an honest person and didn't say much. She just smiled and nodded: "It's too hot. I'll get you some fruit."

After that, he jogged away happily.

The house was demolished and the surroundings were quite messy. The three of them sat down at the wooden table.

The sun is scorching all around, but it's cool under the yellow horn tree. The sun is shining through the cracks in the trees, and it looks quite comfortable. There is a refreshing mint tea next to it. Take a sip and feel calm and refreshed!

"This tree is really nice——"

Wu Jing couldn't help but said happily.

The yellow-horned branches grow all around, and the branches and leaves are extremely lush, like a big open umbrella, covering most of the yard. The faint fragrance of yellow-horned orchid hangs down, refreshing!

"When the yard is finished, I will make two swings under the trees, where you can swing and play at any time... I will plant a few cherry trees next to the garage to eat cherries in the spring, and plant a patch of grapes next to the pond to lie down in the summer. Eat grapes…”

Tang Qinghua began to describe the future scene of the yard.

The two of them listened with gusto, especially Wu Jing, who seemed to be immersed in the scene and found the yard very interesting.

"How many years does it take for cherries to bear fruit?"

Wu Jing is greedy. She really likes eating cherries.

"Larger seedlings can bear fruit in one year."

Tang Qinghua poured a glass of mint water and continued to talk longingly: "I asked my dad to build a ditch to bring in the mountain spring from the valley behind and flow it into the clear pond in front... Then I raised some fish, fed some frogs, and threw two little turtle……"

"You can also plant more lotus flowers!" Wu Jing added.

"Well, it's okay... There is no need for a high fence around the yard, just a low wall made of stone. A tree of wintersweet is planted next to the wall, waiting for winter to come... The vegetable field over there is surrounded by a wooden fence. The wooden fence Red roses are planted on the edge, waiting for the arrival of summer, and the fragrance of flowers is overflowing..."

"Choose several colors of roses." Wu Jing thought for a while and said.

……

The three of them chatted casually and planned the future of the small courtyard.

Little Lingdang was dismissive at first, but then after listening, she couldn't help but interrupt.

After a while, the second aunt came over with a porcelain basin, which contained a bunch of fruits: apples, oranges, grapes... and a large watermelon soaked in cold well water. It was crisp, cold and sweet after being cut. .

"Oh, so much fruit...thank you, Auntie!"

Wu Jing took the bunch of grapes and immediately said sweetly.

This season, grapes are hard to find and watermelons are gone. It’s rare that she still has some hidden away.

"Eat it quickly, sweet!"

The second aunt looked at her and said happily.

She is Tang Xiaoling's daughter. Tang Qinghua is good to them both, and they regard their nephew as half a son. Of course the second aunt is happy to see Tang Qinghua bring such a beautiful girlfriend back.

"Tsinghua University, when did you come back?"

An uncle passed by and saw Tang Qinghua there, so he couldn't help but come forward to chat.

"Uncle Lin, come and sit."

Tang Qinghua smiled and took out his cigarette to say hello.

"Tsinghua University, you didn't even call me when you came back."

Soon, a young neighbor passed by.

"Tsinghua University, haven't you gone to school yet?"

Neighbor after neighbor kept passing by.

In less than half an hour, everyone from the production team came to the yard!

Tang Qinghua still didn't understand. The second aunt must have revealed that he had brought his girlfriend back, and all the neighbors came to watch the fun.

Ok,

Just look at it,

My girlfriend is so beautiful, it’s not like I can’t look at her!

"Tsinghua, is this your girlfriend?"

An elder of the Tang family smiled and spoke.

"Yes, this is my girlfriend, Wu Jing."

Tang Qinghua introduced it proudly while puffing away his smoke.

Wu Jing blushed slightly, but she was not shy, but smiled quietly at everyone.She thought she would be watched, but she never thought there would be so many people... It seems that the Tang family is quite popular in the neighborhood!

"He is indeed the first famous college student in the village. He finds different girlfriends. She is as beautiful as a fairy."

"Oh haha, my third sister is so worried this time, she is completely out of luck!"

"What do you think of Tsinghua University? Does it like your third sister?"

"Lao Wu, I'm actually pretty good too. Although I'm not as good as Tsinghua University, I think your third sister and I are a perfect match..."

"Get out of here! I treat you as a brother, and you want to be my brother-in-law, so go to hell!"

Several young people whispered and discussed, their words full of envy.

When Wu Jing heard it, she felt sweet in her heart, and her affection for this mountain village doubled!

"Uncle Yan, Uncle Chen——"

In the distance, a voice suddenly shouted: "Are you here? My mother-in-law fell down, who can help her?"

"Is it Yingchuanchuan's voice? Her mother-in-law fell down?"

"Let's go and see if the fall was serious."

"Po Ying is almost 80 years old and is in trouble after a fall."

Everyone stood up and rushed towards the direction of the sound.

Of course Tang Qinghua knew Ying Chuanchuan. Her mother was Tang Qinghua's next-door cousin, so she also called Tang Qinghua uncle.This girl graduated from junior high school this year. Her parents have gone to Dongguang to work. Her grandfather has passed away, leaving her and her mother-in-law at home.

When everyone arrived, they saw Ying Po lying in the courtyard, moaning constantly. Her left leg was severely bent and apparently severely fractured.
